Bring back the green 'synced' checkmark in the system tray.
In my Windows system tray (next to the clock), Dropbox used to show that it was fully synced by showing a green check-mark over the Dropbox icon. This was really helpfull.
If Dropbox was offline, ...
The previous tray icon had a little green circle with a white check mark in the middle if Dropbox was synced. This was a perfect universal icon to signify that everything was synced up. This was obvious to a 5 year year old. Why would you ever change that? Were your users complaining that it was confusing, I doubt it. Listen to your user, not the software engineers! When I look at the new icon I think it is not active or connected! Then ironically you open the popup and you show legend that has a check mark which signifies "Up to date". Also, you felt the need to display a message explaining the new Icon(hello). The fact that you felt you needed a message to explain the new icon should have been a clue that it was a mistake.
Did you ever need a message explaining what a green circle with a white check mark meant?
Please put the green circle with the white check back on the tray icon to signify that Dropbox is synced, it was simple and perfect! (I said please)
Thanks,
Tony
